Arriving after the date above? If you come to this page after the test day is completed, your testing of Nouveau is still valuable, and you can use the information on this page to test Nouveau with your graphics card and provide feedback. If you are visiting after the release of Fedora 13, please wait for the next Nouveau test day.

Make sure to back up your existing xorg.conf file, if you have one, so you can recover if the nouveau driver causes you trouble

How to test?

Update your machine

If you're running Fedora 23, make sure you have all the current updates for it installed, using the update manager. If you have any problems running the test, please also install these updated builds from Koji and re-test before reporting a failure:

Report your results

If you have problems with any of the tests, report a bug to Bugzilla usually for the component xorg-x11-drv-nouveau. If you are unsure about exactly how to file the report, just ask on IRC and we will help you. Follow the instructions on this page to ensure you include sufficient information in the report. Once you have completed the tests, add your results to the Results table below, following the example results from Sample user as a template. The first column should be your name with a link to your User page in the Wiki if you have one, and the second should be a link to your Smolt hardware profile (see above for a link with instructions on submitting your hardware profile to Smolt). For each test case, if your system worked correctly, simply enter the word PASS. If you had trouble, enter the word FAIL, with a footnote indicator, and put a link to the bug report in the comments column (as in the example line). If you could not perform one test (for example, you cannot perform the more advanced tests because the basic one fails, or you cannot perform the multihead test as you have only one display), enter the word N/A. In the comments column, you can enter the model name and PCI device ID (vendor ID is usually 10DE) of your card, if you know it - you can usually find this information in the output of the command lspci -nn.

↑Shows a corrupted image for several seconds before loading gdm. Fails to create a continuous display, though xrandr output is completely valid. Shows wallpapers on the smaller one but it is impossible to get on that display; the smaller one often flickers while actions are performed on the bigger one. gnome-display-properties detects the two monitors correctly. Creates a continuous display after playing around with settings. Rearrangement works, but the smaller one constantly flickers (sometimes even while moving the mouse cursor).

↑Came back up, but fan speed was maxed. Desktop, despite not having compositioning enabled, took 20-30 seconds to respond to clicks. Mouse moved, but nothing changed for said time period. Multiple issues present in dmesg upon resume.

↑Video plays perfectly, just some minor delay/refresh issues with desktop/window widgets. See RHBZ #582168 for details.
Update: artifacting and refresh issues are not present when Compiz is switched on per OpenGL test - see RHBZ #582168#6

↑Profile sent from main installation, not from the tested one (gfx_test_week_20100412_x86-64 livecd)

↑Widgets redrawing is a bit slow while returning from fullscreen or dragging Totem window (both with video playing), like in Cliff's report RHBZ #582168

↑Didn't restart system because of livecd, only X restart done. Some slowness persists, but lighter than in 2nd test. Glxgears shows 140-290 FPS (1100-1200 on this system with proprietary driver and compiz enabled)

↑Only issue is a black screen with mouse cursor for several seconds before some switches (not all)

↑Ok, but windows moving isn't smooth even without cpu load by other tasks
